OBAMA will sweep! Yea babeeeeee!

It doesn't matter who is the Democratic nominee, so must of this stuff is navel gazing which will long forgotten by November.

The Republican nomination is useless this year.

Hopefully Barack will O'Bomb, and will see it clear to tone down his rhetoric, and audacity of arrogance.

Couple more years in the Senate, and perhaps some soul searching would do him some good; for the ambitious freshman senator firm in the conviction that he fiercely, urgently has to be president, now.

Okay, it's a matter of record that Obama's against the death penalty. If I vote for Obama, I am voting for these Death Row inmates to live, perhaps to kill again in prison, perhaps to get out and kill again in society.

I really don't know where Hillary stands on the death penalty. She seems more sensible than Obama on national defense.

http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/stories/2008/05/05/lynd_0506.html

I've never heard the death penalty debated by Obama and Hillary.

Is that because they're both against the death penalty?

I don't recall Bill Clinton being against the death penalty, although he appointed Federal district and appellate judges who are against the death penalty.

Hillary will win Indiana and Obama, who held a 25 point lead will win in single digits showing he does not relate to the base of the party.

Hillary parties on to West Virginia and Kentucky where she will post double digit victories and overcome Obamama's lead in total votes.

http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/stories/2008/05/05/lynd_0506.html

Okay, I know Obama's against the death penalty, so I know the kind of justices and judges Obama would appoint to the Federal bench, all those radic-libs who believe the lethal injection is unconstitutional, completely out of step with Americans.

Obama voted against confirming Justice Roberts.

I don't know where Hillary stands on the death penalty. She may be for it, but she won't say she's for it.

That leaves John McCain, unequivocally for the death penalty, and committed to appointing more justices and judges in the mold of Roberts and Alito, not a bunch of stealth liberals with a gay marriage agenda.

datourist-i would imagine if your in prison for murder, you would be there for at least 25 years minium. plus threating to "obliterate"iran isnt sensible national defense, unless its from the bush/McCain camp.

a time ET 6:25pm
Taichilo projects Sen. Hillary win over Obama by 58% to 42%.in Indiana primary.

*ahem* follow election results from the hoosier state here.

We must stop this horrid woman, for whom most of America will not vote. Let's hope that there is still some "cerebral fortitude" in Indiana and that she will be pushed out -- and quickly!

Hillary needs to win both states by a wide margin to stay alive. The delegate math is what it is: she needs to win 80% of the remaining delegates to put a dent in Obama's lead.

Hillary will fade after tonight.

Apparently Jay cannot subtract because 55-45= 10%

I told my husband this morning when I left the house that Clinton would win by about 60%. That said, all the pundits was saying she need 60+ to win and I told him the fix was in. Love it!!!

As an undereducated, "working class" White male, I have spend my life underachieving. I cannot stand to see an Uppity Negro win the nomination.

jim beam, if you agree with anything on that site you posted, you're about as racist as anyone i've met. being a muslim does not make you bad, in fact having the two hours of schooling in islam a week that the site criticises him and his school for surely just makes a better candidate to be president, in this age of multi-culturism?

Jake,
Bingo, you were right about the uneducated part!!!

JakeD at 6:58 PM said "As an undereducated, "working class" White male, I have spend my life underachieving. I cannot stand to see an Uppity Negro win the nomination."

Somehow, JakeD's one little irony-artist riff has summed it all up for me. That thought is running through many white heads today and that is why we need Barack to run-- and lose, if need be. We will not get this race thing behind us-- Toqueville after all said we never would, until Barack and others just burn it right out of the core of our national being.

Thank YOU JakeD.

Message to the Supers: If Hillary steals the nomination from the winner of the most delegates, I'm out of the party for good. I've voted nothing but straight-ticket Democrat for 35 years. I've worked for the DNC and for candidates, I've given money, I've pounded the pavement. And I will never do that for a single Democrat again should Hillary Clinton get the nomination her way. And you know as well as I do that the only way she can get it now is by overturning the will of the people who have voted, discounting the caucus states, and using her influence in the rules committee to suddenly change the rules and seat the FL and MI delegates without any re-vote. Unfair, Un-Democratic, Fascist. I will never be part of a party that would be okay with doing things like that.

And that's just me -- a little 'ole white female "Latte Liberal". What about the African American voters? What about the Youth vote? Think long and hard before you do this, you party leaders. You will not just destroy any hope of beating John McCain, you will destroy the party for good.

This is why I do not watch MSNBC anymore or believe everything the NYTimes Wasington Post Chgo. Trib. etc. write. It is all show biz and they are in trouble financially because they are trying to be sensational verses give real news without biased comments or razmataz. CNN as well. When the entertainment section took over the news division it lost its credability. Fox too. I even stopped watching PBS as the reporters jounalists are biased as well. So I do not give a dime to PBS anymore, as well. I encorage Americans to not respond to polls or give incorrect answers. Just get your information as best you can and make up your own minds about issues candidates and turn off these showbiz folks. Otherwise it will get worse. Be well and vote YOUR best judgement based on history. Use YOUR own brain and look at the facts.

You will not be the problem for Obama in a general election. It will be those voters over 60, who are voting in high numbers for Hillary. While, a majority of voters will support Obama, these older voters have decided to support Hillary because of Wright. They will not change their minds in November. They are hoping Obama loses in November, so Hillary can run again in 2012.

Dear DNC -- If Hillary and Bill steal this election, I will not vote in November -- period. They complained about Gore and now they are trying to do the same. Give up; go home; and let us move forward. It is not all about you!

Isn't it a sweet day....they are already predicting she has won Indiana, and they say she might have won North Carolina when the go by exit polls....

Its a sweet day, America is waking up and smelling the roses and have realized that Hillary Rodham Clinton is the correct nominee and the one to win back the White House....

one thing that this election is teaching us...now we know where the people who really want a different America live...and it is not in the states that supported the status quo...Hillary Clinton....

I think Obama will sweep. Hillary is running ahead, but there are no totals from around Gary, which is an Obama stronghold. And I expect him to win NC, too.

There appears to be a white backlash against Obama, but I think there's a black backlash against that white backlash. Black voters are more energized than ever, and they see HRC for what she is.

So, North Carolina is a bigger state than Indiana?

And North Carolina is 70% white, so, if Obama wins NC, will that be the first "White State" he has won.

I know they say he can't win with whites, but Iowa is white, too, no?

This is confusing.

With all the focus on Indiana, I really thought it would be the larger state, at least by population, and Hillary should win it by a lot, no?

And NC holds more delegates, which is the way Dems pick their winner.

This doesn't look good for Hillary.

Not as far as catching Obama.

He might actually increase his lead even if they split.

I really like Hillary, too. She stuck by Bill just for this and to miss by so little is heartbreaking.

I still respect her a lot, though, she's a fighter!

It's amazing! With ZERO PRECINCTS reporting in, Obama has been declared the undisputed winner of NC. Is this bizarro land? There is no data.

I refuse to vote for a black man to be president. Yes I am racist and proud of it. If Obama wins the nomoination for president from the democrat pary, I will vote a straight republican ticket in november.

lg writes, "one thing that this election is teaching us...now we know where the people who really want a different America live"

lg, I agree with you. Who wants an America where the candidate's supporters want to bomb American buildings or preach white hate and Anti-American sermons and whose own wife calls Americans mean. I'm with you. It's good to know where these anti-Americans live. We need Hillary to bring us together. Preach on brother.

I guess I should have added that I'm 66...and I support Obama for his common sense dialogue and ability to intelligently assess the problems facing us; but most of all, I like that he hasn't engaged in the dishonest politics that are the Clinton earmark.

The last thing in the world this nation needs is a dishonest millionaire again at the helm.
Hillary Clinton is both.

23.) My Economics Bill Will Help America - Lie, your 111 economic policies were just combined into a proposal which lost 99-0, and even YOU voted against your own bill.
24.) I Have Been A Bold Leader In Illinois - Lie, even your own supporters claim to have not seen BOLD action on your part.

37.) I Don't Take PAC Money - Lie, you take loads of it. The Obama PAC is the largest PAC in the US Senate. I dare Obama supporters to go look this up.

39.) My Campaign Had Nothing To Do With The 1984 Ad - Lie, your own campaign worker made the ad on his Apple in one afternoon.

44.) I Have Always Supported Universal Health Care - Lie, your plan leaves us all to pay for the 15,000,000 who don't have to buy it.
45.) I Only Found Out About My Investment Conflicts Via Mail - Lie, both companies you site as having sent you letters about this conflict have no records of any such letters ever being created or sent.
46.) My Wife Didn't Mean What She Said About Pride In Country - Lie, your wife's words follow lock-step in the vein of Wright and Farrahkan, in relation to their contempt and hatred of America.
47.) Wal-Mart Is A Company I Wouldn't Support - Lie, your wife has received nearly a quater of a million dollars through Treehouse, which is connected to Wal-Mart.
48.) Treehouse Is A Small Company - Lie, the CEO of Treehouse last year, made more than the CEO of Wal-Mart, according to public records.
49.) University Of Chicago Hospital Pay Is Fair - Lie, your wife's pay raise was nearly 150% her already bloated rate (going from $120K to $320K weeks after you got into the US Senate and tried to get a $1 million pork project for the very same hospital) and the hospital is a Non-Profit Hospital, which made $100,000,000 in the last 3 years. They overcharge blacks VS whites for services, and overcharge everyone in general by 538%!
50.) I Barely Know Rezko - Only 5 Billed Hours - Lie, you have known him for 17 years, and decided to do a real estate deal with him during a time when he was proven to be under investigation. Despite this, you divided your property and had them take off $300K before the mortgage problems started. Then Rezko's wife buys the lot beside it that you can't afford, saving you $625,000.
51.) My Donations Have Been Checked Thoroughly - Lie, you only gave back Hsu ($72K [Yes, the same Hsu, Obama supporters try to tie Clinton to]) and Rezko (first $66K, then when caught lying $86K, then when caught lying again $150K and now caught lying YET AGAIN, it's $250k) their money when publically called on their involvement in your campaigns.
52.) My Church Is Like Any Other Christian Church - Lie, your church is so extreme, the pastor who married you, Rev. Wright, just got done blaming the US for 9/11 and named Louis Farrahkan their person of the year.
53.) I Disagree With My Church All The Time - Lie, you only recently repudiated Wright, who married you and your wife, and you still donate large sums of money to assist the church in furthering its message - hatred and revenge. You donated in 2006 alone, $22,500 to the church that you so terribly disagree with. That is nearly $500 PER WEEK - that sure is disagreement, Senator Obama.
54.) I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko - Lie, you are not only connected to Exelon and Rezko, you are also connected to Hillary PAC supporter Mr. Hsu, AND an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi Auchi, who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal. Mr. Auchi was also found guilt in another political corruption scandal (largest in France since WWII). And this is one of Obamas' good supporters that paid millions into the Obama campaign.
55.) I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright's, that have been in videos all day, You Tube - Lie! 3 days later during your Mea Culpa speech you said "Did I hear controversial statements while I sat in that church? Yes I did." FLIP-FLOPER
56.) The Passport Invasion is a conspiracy to find dirt on me! - Lie. Your own Campaign Foreign Policy Advisor is the CEO of the company that looked into your records. Could it be that you had them look into yours to hide the fact you looked into Clinton's and McCain's more than a year before!
57.) Rev. Meeks has nothing to do with my campaigning - Lie. Rev. Meeks appeared in ads for your Senate Campaign, donated to you, and helped raise money, then AND NOW. He also seems to despise America as much as Rev. Wright.
58.) My wife didn't mean America is ignorant, she was just using a phrase - Lie. Again, MicHELLe's comments are perfectly in sync with Wright's, Meeks', and Farrakhans, both in language, anger, and direction.
59.) I am very Anti-Terror - Lie. One of your good pals is long time radical and terrorist William Ayers, with whom you have been seen in the last 12 months and who has helped the now jailed khalidi, Professor at Columbia who invited Ahmadinejad to the University, to raise money for Palestinian terrorism attacks against Israel. PS - Your church published a pro Hamas Manifesto - guess you weren't there on THAT Sunday either? How lucky for you.
60.) I have the best plan to cure the Mortgage Crisis - Lie. You and your campaign buddy Penny 'SubPrime Bank Collapse' Prizker have had your little fingers full of subprime cash - Obama has taken $1,180,103 from the top issuers of subprime loans: Obama received $266,907 from Lehman, $5395 from GMAC, $150,850 from Credit Suisse First Boston, $11,250 from Countrywide, $9052 from Washington Mutual, $161,850 from Citigroup, $4600 from CBASS, $170,050 from Morgan Stanley, $1150 from Centex, and last but certainly NOT LEAST - Obama received $351,900 from Goldman Sachs. I am sure that cash all came from folks who knew the subprime loan they had was a dream, eh?
61.) I played greater role in crafting liberal stands on gun control, the death penalty and abortion - Lie - It was found that Obama -- the day after sitting for the interview -- filed an amended version of the questionnaire, which appears to contain Obama's own handwritten notes added to one answer. Read Obama had greater role on liberal survey

JakeD prides himself on being irrelevant. Did he actually say "uppity"?

Well Put, JakeD

See you at the Cross Burning this Saturday.

(and wear your garter belt under your robe like you did last time, you sexy bear, you)

There appears to be a white backlash against Obama, but I think there's a black backlash against that white backlash. Black voters are more energized than ever, and they see HRC for what she is.

And he's going to win with the black, student and liberal elite vote ? I don't think so.

Have a nice day !

CNN and MSNBC calling NC for Obama just based on exit polling, but with 20% of the actual vote counted in IN it's "too close to call". Usual biased BS.

My other gripe is CNN's seeming phobia of the word "black". I heard "African American" used about four times and the word "white" over a dozen in just one minute. Sorry, it's either "black and white" or "African American and European American". If it's good enough for me it's good enough for you. I'll start using "African American" if it's still around when I'm in a nursing home, but until then it's just another PC term pushed on us by people who want to make black people think anything they touch, even their name, they make dirty.

Not just that, it's idiotic. Is an American with roots in Morocco or Libya "African American"?

"I'm black and I'm proud!"
"Black is beautiful!"

CNN and their PC chicken$#!ts can kiss my a$$.

gHutchens, the Democratic Party thanks you for leaving. Please never come back.

Even though Obama got 91% of the Black vote in North Carolina, he still need a sizable amount of the White vote to win. Why? Simply because Black Democrats only make up 1/3rd of the total amount of Democrats in North Carolina. Therefore, Obama needed at least 1/3rd of the total White vote to win North Carolina; he got 41%. That speaks volumes!

BHO doesn't have a chance of winning the red-neck cultural wasteland (and home of the KKK) stuck between OH and IL. But then neither he nor HRC has a prayer of being elected POTUS so it's a moot point. Once again, the Dems...with their uncanny ability and sheer stupidity...have picked unelectable candidates.

I am a strong supporter of HILLARY! What will become of our great nation if we allow UPPITY BLACKS with Harvard degrees to run our party???

Give me HILLARY any day. She is a folksy WHITE American who hunts, drinks beers, and will save us from high gas prices.

gbooksdc, "There appears to be a white backlash against Obama, but I think there's a black backlash against that white backlash."

There has been a black backlash against Hillary since South Carolina. Obama has been winning 90-95 percent of black votes since South Carolina, so how do you consider this black bashlash. He is still taking all the black vote. Hillary could carry Indiana in November. Obama will not carry North Carolina, South Carolina or any of those Republican states.

In your blog you said:
* Don't Trust the Early Exits: Exit polling is supposed to stay secret until the polls close but, let's be honest, that ain't happening. Remember that when you start seeing exit numbers shortly after 5 p.m. These are incomplete numbers based on interviews done early in the day. The last several sets of early exits in places like Pennsylvania and Ohio have drastically underweighted Sen. Clinton's ultimate showings. Although the television networks use exit polling as part of their calculation in calling races, the true value of it is in understanding the shape and look of the electorate after the fact.

Yet on no apparent data, not even citing exit polling you declare a winner? Hey, probably he has won... but on NO data? and in just minutes after the polls have closed?

You need to be on SNL.

I guess I should have added that I'm 66

Well nana, you will be one of the 30 percent that vote Obama, so now you know what its like being in the minority.

Good Point, TreeTopFlyer.

I say we go back to Colored, or Nigra.

Those were good ol words, just rolled right off your tongue...especially when followed by "Boy"

now they got big fancy words.
That's what elections are all about: Dumb Racist Americans.

YeeHaw!

Unlike Barack HUSSEIN Obama, Hillary has a WHITE EUROPEAN name that dignifies our nation. This nation has been run by White Americans, we cannot allow ARABIANS or NEGROS to defile the Oval Office.

The image of Hillary as a 'Nascar Mom' is laughable. Maybe if she had kept her hand on the stick shift a little more often, Bill would have stayed on track.

Even though Obama got 91% of the Black vote in North Carolina, he still needed a sizable amount of the White vote to win. Why? Simply because Black Democrats only make up 1/3rd of the total amount of Democrats in North Carolina. Therefore, Obama needed at least 1/3rd of the total White vote to win North Carolina; he got 41%. That speaks volumes!

True, JakeD,

and don't forget about the Free Beer and Bullets, all summer long!!

Go Hillary!!

Smite that Colored Boy!

Nana: You're right - that's just you.

You don't speak for the whole party. Millions have voted for both candidates.

The question is, which of these 2 states is more likely to Go Blue in November: Indiana or NC? I'll take the winner of that one.

JakeD:
You're an idiot!

How does Ladies and gentlemen The President of the United States Barrack Hussein Obama roll off you tongue.

Hillary is a classic American WHITE, she spent her childhood hunting deer and riding in her daddy's pickup truck?

Barack? He's a big city NEGRO who lived in Jakarta, a city full of MUSLIMS!

He's a negro, he spent his childhood with MUSLIMS....he is NOT NEARLY as American as Hillary!

GO HILLARY!

I see the FAKE JakeD has been busy again ; )

Chris,

Again you are showing your black feathers!
Indiana to close to call?
I predict what you dont' dare with 28% of the precincts in Indiana in: Hillary will kick Obama's but by at least 15 percentage points!
Once again the Obscure Candidate is not selling his black cookies to the white working class!

Clearly this contest is all about race now.

It is time for Hillary to bury BARACK and all people of color!

Okay, this thin "latte moderate" 44-year-old college-educated Democrat, mother of three will be voting for John McCain in November.

I will NEVER vote for Barack Obama. I have grown to dislike him - and that wasn't always the case. It's because of his mean-spirited supporters and his racist wife.

Restore Honor and Integrity to the White House and to the Democratic Party ... Barack Obama, '08!!!

Well North Crackerlackin proved that race isnt a factor--- McCain will be happy to get my vote now that I see that some people are just voting by skin color.

As an undereducated, confused, downscale, "working class" white Democrat, I will vote for McCain if Barack is the nominee.

Hillary has already shown the way. Barack has DARK visions for America, McCain is a White you can trust.

Uh, could you put up some numbers, you know, just as a courtesy, for us old fogies that insist on procedure. Thanks Big Brother!

Odd that 95 % of blck democrats in NC voted Obamba. That means that skin color is most important to that group of people. It also means that Rev Wright is important in the national election. Obamba does not stand a chance.

JakeD,
I hope Obama wins the Democratic nomination, and then go on to win the Presidency. I bet you'll just die wouldn't you? Hey, something to look forward to; right?

Has the media no shame? Only one percent of the vote has been counted and the race has already been called?!?

Is this election a black socialist revolution?

Obama Beats Clinton in North Carolina

Even though Obama got 91% of the Black vote in North Carolina, he still needed a sizable amount of the White vote to win. Why? Simply because Black Democrats only make up 1/3rd of the total amount of Democrats in North Carolina. Therefore, Obama needed at least 1/3rd of the total White vote to win North Carolina; he got 41%. That speaks volumes!

Christina,

You have hit the nail on the head. There are going to some hard feelings toward the hatred and contempt Obama supporters show towards Hillary supporters. How many will be able to overlook Obama's associations with people that hate America and vote for him will determine if he gets elected. According to the media, Obama supporters are suppose to be smarter than Hillary supporters(I don't think they are)they sure act dumb when they start typing.

CNN Exit polls has shown that Clinton wins IN 52,1 to 47,9. Obama takes NC by 54,86 to 41,14. These exit polls (gender) has been quite precise before. It's funny to me that nobody mentions them. Anyway Obama wins overall today and Clinton's slim chances evaporates even more.

Ok, I am going to lay this out for you Hillary supporters.

I understand most of you are uneducated, incurious, and generally you have trouble grasping complex topics.

Well the topic today is MATH. Yes, I know it is a word that brings fear into your uneducated souls. Well here it goes-Barack will now have a 150 delegate lead over Hillary after tonight is done. This means that your little white girl HILLARY will need to win 75% of the vote in the remaining contests. This is a highly unlikely scenario, and would require Barack eating a toddler while kicking a puppy at the same time.

Now most of you are uneducated-that's why Hillary fools you in the first place-but I am sure with enough intelligent thought you will figure it out.

God, the MSNBC and CNN media pundits are already kissing Obama's feet. But what they need to say is we can make an accurate analysis that the African Americans in the this country are voting entriely based on race. I'm sorry, but if you look at all of that data from all of the states that have voted since January, it is extremely fair to state that as TRUE!!! Yet everyone is affraid to talk about it on TV. What a bunch of pansies.

Am I the only one who is scared by Michael's post? Clearly barking mad. Its an election, fool! Not a do or die affair. Support or oppose whomever you like, but for heaven's sake, take it easy. You sound like you're about to have an aneurysm over Obama, a man who has no knowledge of your existence and never will.

Ballgame. Obama is winning all the IN cities, and Gary and South Bend haven't reported. He'll win IN, and that wuill be that. There just aren't enough dumb goobers to boost Hillary over the top.

As usual,the Jewish WAPO is engaging in their highly slanted coverage.Claiming that McCain was coasting uncontested in Indiana when 24% of the voters went against him,11% to the Huckster and 14% to other,which is,of course,Ron Paul.This Jew media won't even mention Paul's name in their coverage.Paul won't kiss Israel's a** so he is VERBOTEN and Obama is not quite the a** kisser that the Israel Lobby would like so the front page of WAPO has been running a skull and crossbones with Obama's name attached for a couple of days now.

Obama Beats Clinton in North Carolina

___________________________

HUH? What's the count bwana?

Obama will win in November. Hillary just offers us a blast to the past...all the way back to the 1990s.

I do not want that. I know all Hillary's legions of old, old, uneducated Whites have a fear of change-but get over yourselves. America is not meant to be a place for dynasties.

"Odd that 95 % of black democrats in NC voted Obamba. That means that skin color is most important to that group of people.It also means that Rev Wright is important in the national election."

Robinhood,

This may suggest that African Americans agree with Wright's anti-white message and black theology religion. That is a scary thought.

Not knowing what Obama can do, there is not much to hope for with the economy..strange, but that is what is important for North Carolina; obviously, voters have forgotten the 90s and the good decisions made then to get the economy where it should be.

Republicans, no hope? Well, a lot of voters supporting Hillary are planning to vote for John McCain. So, Obama supporters, you cannot be sure!

Cilllizzi, or whatever yo Mama claimed to be, enough already!@

Well first we have to endure years of junk from Bush's shenanigans with Florida and the actual vote gets pushed aside.

Now we have to wait around and see if Billary can buy this one out from under what the majority wants.

After awhile we can just let the ones with IQs below 85 pick our candidates and get on with the election.

If Obama has any hope of being President he needs to throw his big ugly Racist wife under the Bus alone with his Grandmother and the Rev. Wright. I am sure the Obama cult will believe him & defend when he tells them he just discovered she was an American hating, Racist!

Part of the Obama snow job where he portrayed Rev. Wright's paranoid rants as coming from anger that is the baggage as the legacy of of old white racism, carried by old blacks. Well, there is current-day stuff that is alive and well, carried by the young blacks, that is a lot worse than the racism, sexism and homophobic intolerance of the older generation of blacks. It's called Hip Hop, Gangsta and Street culture. It's full of racism, paranoia, anger, violence, abuse of women, sexism and a whole lot of dysfunctional antisocial expression schemes. The social psychological disordered behavior that Rev. Wright's hate-speech-as-sermons represents and coveys to blacks and supported by Obama is alive and well in the current-day generation in Black America. It's just in a newer more dangerous carnation.

Blacks leaders should start speaking out about taking some personal responsibility for high rate of high school drop out, sexual promiscuity, children born out of wedlock, , absence of male parenting/role models, drugs, crime, incarceration, AIDS, instead of playing the victim hood game and blaming whites for black failures! Until that time there will always be hate mongers & race baiter,s to use them and profit from their plight like the Rev. Wright, Rev. Jessie Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton, as well as 10,s of thousands of White and Black Politicians. In fact the whole Democrat party! Hand outs, instead of a hand up, is the means of keeping Blacks down and economic Slaves! Keeping Blacks as an race of victims and believing all of the above is Whitey fault is designed to keep them from progressing instead of a race of achievers! It is in the best interest of Black preachers and Democrat politicians! Blacks will never be lead to the promise land by hate mongering Preachers like Rev. Wright or by bottom feeding Politicians that wants and works to keep Blacks in the Ghetto, on Welfare, and voting Democrat!

I have made my decision.
I will vote for Obama as the Democratic Party nominee. If the Party shoots itself in the foot again as it did in 2004, I will cast my vote for the Green Party nominee. I expect the Greens to nominate Cynthia McKinney and I like the idea of a progressive Black woman as president.

Support the middle class re-evolution of politics, poor and middle class unite to write in Jim Ellis for President. Reject the notion that we need to support millionaires who put the middle class down with their corporate funded partyline politics! For more info check out webjam.com/jimellisforpresident/jimellisforpresident/ This is a serious realistic campaign done for free via passing email to email list copies of this blog. Tests prove an email can circulate the entire country in less than three weeks. Google (in qoutes) "Jim Ellis For President" and write me in! The country needs to tell 3375 behind the scenes power brokers (The Council for Foreign Relations; CFR, and Trilateral Commission; TC, that 300 million Americans have decided they are not going to control politics, wars and our economy anymore! Amen!

Too bad that some people are worried about "dynasty" by Clintons rather than the economy. The Clintons have only one child who is not even interested in running for a political position. That cannot be dynasty. On the other hand, we had the Bushes, but it is not because it is a dynasty that put us where we are now.It is capability, voters, that you should think about. Not even lies about snipers, or inaccurate information about a hospital patient..as they are "lies" or "errors" that would not affect our lives. It is errors like "WMD" that you should worry about.

Obama2008,

Hillary just offers us a blast to the past...all the way back to the 1990s.

Wright has nothing to do with it (in fact, Wright has become an outcast in the black community since last Monday's antics, shunned at a religious conference at Howard U. and criticized by an organization of black Chicago preachers, who pointedly said Wright is a member of the black church, not THE black church.) Here's what it REALLY means.

Blacks think the Clintons have dredged the bottom of the barrel in crucifying Obama over Wright. When you start saying the man is unqualified because he stayed in a room with a preacher who said crazy things -- a preacher who married him and his wife and baptized his kids -- blacks don't think that's valid. I'll remind you, we said no to guilt by association in the mid-50s, when we said an airman could continue to serve even though his father was a Communist. To blacks, that sounds like a convenient excuse to vote your white racism. It certainly sounds it to me.

Blacks also recognize how much political support they gave Bill Clinton during Monicagate (when he asked Rev. Wright to pray for him). And they see how easily the Clintons have stimulated racial polarity. Why hasn't Hillary said, I don't want the support of white racists?

Bottom line: blacks are supporting Obama in the same overwhelming numbers they support Dems in GEs. They support Dems because they believe (wrongly, in my view) that Repubs are racist. They NOW believe the Clintons are, if not racist themselves, willing to play on race hate for political gain. So they're voting against Hillary now for the same reasons they have voted against Repubs for the last generation.

It's time to put this dog down. Yes, this female dog has been nothing but an obnoxious pest to us clear thinking, EDUCATED, Democrats.

I guess because I have a college degree I'm an elitist huh? Oh Hillary supporters....she is playing you like a fiddle.

Nobody...not McCain, Clinton, or Obama, see you working class uneducated whites as intelligent beings. If you were...you'd go to school, leave your crap town, and find a better job.

What's wrong with the 90s, Obama 2008? Obviously you have forgotten or did not even notice that the stock market just went up and up then or probably, you did not even try to save money to invest so you do not even know what you have missed. You are putting the economy at risk with your candidate. I have not heard about his credentials in economics. He is also a lawyer who you think can make the change, whatever change you have been told.

It's already a dynasty when a wife succeeds her husband. Other countries that have done this are Pakistan, India, Indonesia, the Philipines, and Argentina.

90sInvestor:

Nothing was wrong with the 90s. But repeating the same idiotic soap opera, with the Clintons in the White House, is a bit TOO much.

It's time to move on. It's the 21st Century, time to elect someone who isn't a Bush or Clinton.

And if you want risky economics....talk about Hillary's pandering gas tax plan. Jeepers!

Anyone saying that Hillary should drop out of the race is insane. There's no reason for it. It is a close race, and she has the right to wait until we all have been heard. I haven't voted yet, and I want to have a say.

ghutchens61 you poor bitter uneducated old fool. What do you think a black president would do to an idiotic old goat like you? Give you a tax break? End the stupid war? Help everyone? You are truly a stupid man...you would make the perfect republican.

Fact: that in a plurality vote(three candidates) Jim Ellis will be written in when only 6.5% of the 90% of voters boycotting the two elitist corporate funded parties write him in! Fact: Only needed to win are two large electoral states in a three way race for office, or a bunch of small states..Since the Dems/Repubs split only 5-10 % of voters, that means the 90% just need to realize that by writing me in, the middle class will finally win! So if you want to stop gas price tanking of the economy and man y foreclosures, vote for the brave genius who figured out there is a way to stop the wholesale loss of the middle class to the rich power brokers..Elect President Jim Ellis/Fa1thful1@aol.com! Fact: there is a write in spot on every electronic voting machine, required by law for every federal office that gets elected. Wan t a good job with benefits to replace the people who sold good jobs out to corporate ceos who get huge bonuses for shipping factories to China? Run for office yourselves and get those lifelong pensions for two 2yr House of Reps jobs, or one in the Senate, or White House! Middle class and poor unite! Prove democracy is alive with write in votes and reject corporate politics funded by corporate party lines, lobbyists, and directed by folks like the CFR and TC! Google "Jim Ellis For President" so our veterans are guaranteed homes and sufficient incomes, and the VA gets the funding to help them! Amen!

Hillary doesn't have to drop out if she doesn't want to.

But if I were Barack, I would just fly to Oregon right now and start campaigning against McCain.

Release ad spots in NM, CO, and WI against McCain as well. Invite a confrontation with McCain, because it is pretty clear now Obama will win.

dat boy, dat dere CILLLIZA yolk. Forget that "PUDGY", it's looking like he does PRO-QUID/QUO. I'll take 1,,hmm,, My happy memories----

ABC News (you know, the real CNN -- Clinton News Network) has Obama by 30% in NC.

So much for ol' Hillary pulling closer. Buh bye, Mike Easler.

Melanin Challenged Humanoid -

Nothing racist about asking for equal treatment across racial lines. My black next door neighbor is pissed that every five years or so someone tries to stick a new label on her, as though somehow she dirtied up the old one just by being who she is. In her shoes I'd be insulted too.

Is it time to start packing and moving North of the border yet? I'm not sure I can live where my President is decided by race, even though I am told that race isn't a factor in this--- and if you believe that, I'm sure that "words" will move America backwards, I mean forward. Yeah, McCain has my vote all the way.

I don't think JakeD is for real.

Yo, 91 percent of black folk voted for Obama. Finally we get one of ours!!!!!

What I find amusing is all this talk about race. It's obvious from the numbers we've already seen that considerably more Americans voted for Obama today than for Hillary.

Why does it matter what colour they are? Is someone planning to stop blacks from voting in November or something?

Where is Hillary's "comeback"? She will finish the day trailing by a bigger gap - in both votes and delegates - than she started it.

Wow what a bunch of scary nuts on this board. One of the worst!

Anyone out there smart enough to realize that you dont have to chose these play actors the two parties keep inflicting upon us? Checkout this link and pass it on, please! Http://webjam.com/jimellisforpresident/jimellisforpresident/ Thanks for reading this, hopefully you'll be thanking yourselves when we all unite to get me elected, since Obama and Hillary seem intent on dividing the Dems, and handing us 100 year McCain for the Halliburton,Exxon profit machine!

All i have to say is BLACK (RACIST) BLACK, BLACK and MORE (RACIST).

Blacks vote Black no matter if the candidate is a Racist or thug or mass murderer or whatever. Whites vote issue.

Obama will never beat McCain that is a Fact. Dems lose everything.

A vote for Obama is a vote of stupidity. It is hard to comprehend how ignorant and careless voters can be by voting for obama. He and his followers are literally disgusting.

McCain continues to look like the best man for the job.

I changed my vote to independent to vote for Hillary Clinton, but if Hillary loses my vote in the primary will go towards a McCain win.

for all you obama supporters, You are such fools.

Spin, spin, spin, the media runs on spin. Clinton has got a double digit win in Indiana while Obama won a Black State, no duhhhhhhhhhhh.

Interesting that people are giving Rush so much credit. Republicans are actually voting against a their own party that caters to One-Percenters. Social conservatives buy gas too.

So, spin away, tomorrow morning is where the real numbers will come out. Nothing has really changed since Pennsylvania. Clinton is getting double digit wins in the states that matter while Obama continues to win populus votes which are African-American heavy.

If anything else, the general election is going to be like a superbowl game blow-out. Democrats will win the general election by at least a two to one margin. People will be turning that game off at half-time. Republicans will continue to talk like Rove talked during the last midterm election. Rove talked about winning but the real numbers showed a blowout favoring Democrats. Back in 2006, social conservatives not in the One Percent bracket knew they were getting screwed. McCain offers the same screwing but now the war is two more years older, the economy is deep sixing and transportation costs have now affected everyone's bottomline.

But do spin away, it it your job to spin, without spin most of these people would be unemployed like the rest of middle America.

I was born in Yonkers - pretty American - but after reading most of the above comments I'm absolutely appalled and ashamed to be American, not to mention embarrassed. Although there does seem to be some intelligent life out there - not nearly enough.. and so much meanness. Shame on you.

Holy moly, Obama is crushing in NC! Not too bad a showing in the crackah state IN. Go Obama!

0_freeman_0 you are a jackass

Please just report the total percents. Reporting every little sector confused everything. All that matters is the total.

I'm not going to read the WP any more.

Thank God for politicians like Barack Obama! It's rare that we have such a politician that is willing to speak and argue for the truth and not pander to the most vulnerable among us.
Obama's = common sense and wisdom.

Obama is the ticket!

It's over Clinton. Time to pack it in.

You needed to win all the remaining states by at least 75% to remain a viable candidate.

But instead, you are losing states. Now, the remaining uncommitted superdelgates will cause a tsunami as they flood into Obama's camp.

Congratulations Sen. Obama, the Democratic nomination is unquestionably yours.

I don't see today's primaries as changing anything. Neither one of them can get the 2,025 (I think) delegates to win; so they are in a tie that will be decided by the superdelegates. A majority of pledged delegates means nothing. That's not how the system works.

So you want to elect someone who plagiarized Hillary's economic policy at the start of the nomination race....you want to elect someone who has nothing but empty words, cliches, shibboleths with no substantive policy prescriptions.....you want to elect someone who used naked political calculation to ride the coattails of Rev Wright to political stardom in Illinois and by sheer cynical political calculation dumped him like a hot potato when it was damaging his political prospects....you want to elect someone who constantly blasts television with negative campaigning by insinuating that Hillary is a liar and untrustworthy and accuses the Clintons of racism anytime they campaign negatively. Go ahead...vote for the Teflon Obama. A people get the leaders they deserve!!!!

Rosepetals64...they are not tied...she is losing...what is wrong with you people?

gbooksdc explains the AA vote for Obama thusly:

"Black voters are more energized than ever, and they see HRC for what she is."

Give me a break. They aren't voting for Obama as a vote against Hillary, due to them seeing her "for what she is", whatever that is. They are voting for Obama because he is (half) black, and this is their chance to make history.

Do you seriously think that 90% of blacks would vote for Obama if he were a white man, because they see HRC for what she is?

Hint: no, they wouldn't.

Obama is the man of the hour, day and year. So long to Clinton and all the self-absorbed baby boomers! Thank the Lord Almighty for that change.

goldstein, if obama becomes president, does that mean negroes are going to act more uppity than they already do, and we whites are going to catch dirt,

I'm astonished at the level of emotional attachment supporters have for Obama. Though, I don't understand the barrage of attacks on Clinton. Hillary Clinton is a great person whether people want to believe this or not. I'm sure we all have issues and no one person is perfect. Perhaps, Obama supporters should realize that their silly comments and barrage of stupid comments reflect their own insecurities and why we should not let ourselves be driven by emotions but by brains and heart.

Eight Belles was euthanized in KY and Hillary was euthanized in NC.

I want a president and legislators who will change the Constitution so that a baby born to foreign parents is not automatically a U. S. citizen. Americans should not have to tithe a tenth of their income to OPEC and Petroleum Company executives. When a company declares bankruptcy they should not be allowed to give bonuses to executives. We need a national approach to deal with identity theft. We need something to be done about ADA and other shakedown lawsuits. Any time a lawman has to defend himself against a drunk/drugged, suicidal person, here come the shakedown attorneys. It costs more to fight the suit than to settle. So, please, give us a candidate who will address serious issues rather than pander for votes.
Yours, jhurley@shasta.com

Obama can't tie his shoelaces without asking for approval! This guy won't be appointed as leader of the Free World! Mark my words or women and children first!

No ghutchens61, but we will visit you and rearrange your furniture. God bless everyone else.

KKK meeting is S.E. Washington D.C. on Summner Ave at 295 please come in full KKK outfits.

P.S. the Ni@@a@@$ will all have AK 47 and M-p4 to git rid of all you red-necks also the police are on the hood-rat's team.

Nana,

don't worry, all "Latte Liberals" are voting for their superhero Obama.

I am a middle eastern female graduate student and I don't fit your stereotypes.With all my heart I hope that Hillary wins. and I think those who are in fact in need, not the Latte liberals, are the ones who have enough insight to pick the one who is real and will fix things. Latte liberals can afford to be dreamy and take risks with other people's lives.

Will of the people so far has been almost 50-50. That's almost equal but I guess the Obama supporters consider themselves "more equal" than the other side. You are all definitely a loud bunch of people.

If you ignore the other half, we will be as angry as you will be so please stop trying to push her and us aside.

and don't worry about leaving the party if she leaves, because I will be joining if she does.

Any of you Hussein Obama supporters figured out that he can't win the general election? Heck, 75% of his supporters would vote for Hillary Rodham Clinton, yet only about 38% of hers would vote for him. Hussein has done nothing but ruin race relations in this country--- and Rev. Wright helped confirm that.

There was a time when the Republican Party was the Party for minorities. Looks like history may repeat after this election; particularly if the SuperDs vote counter to their constituents.

Jake you don't deserve to call yourself an American. You and your values is what is wrong in our Society.
MajorX

Do we really want Senator Purple Lips in the White House. Just think how ghetto the WHite House will look when Michelle Shaniqua Obama serves fried chicken or they put curb feelers and rims on the Presidential limos.

Hillary is going to lose because of her FOREIGN POLICY. She erred in thinking the 'old guard' is the right side to bank on.

Times have changed Hillary, but either you are too old to sense the TIDAL CHANGE in the WORLD and AMERICA or you were too invested in the 'OLD GUARD'.

TATA

Do th KKK really expect the black people
to stay in the fields picking cotton. Oh yes John Mc Crazzyyyyyyyyyyyyy does his wife still has a plantion with plenty of

The typical threat: "Let us shout, push and mock all we want, but don't you dare give us our own medicine or we'll be angry." All right, I'll just say this.

Obama has more delegates
Obama has more votes. Michigan doesn't count because Hillary ran unopposed in violation of her signed pledge to take her name off the ballot.
Obama will be further ahead in votes and delegates after tonight.
Obama will be the nominee.
Obama will be the president.

See? No mocking. No name calling. Just facts. Make your threats to them and see if they care.

You all right? Need a hankie? (Okay, just a little mocking.)

Indiana will reveal its true American values. Indiana won't vote for Obama. But what did you expect in North Carolina? Blacks stick together 92% for Obama. Are they racist? oops If black vote for Obama they are not racist but if whites vote for Clinton or McCain they are racist? Come on people from the media be fear.

I luvz me some watermellon!

Indiana is a very racist state, as is Pennsylvania.

No big deal. Our whole nation is racist.

BUT, for Obama to be beating a "shoe in" for the White House, at this late stage, something has changed.

It is no longer OK to be an ignorant racist. Rev. Wright caught flak, and so will the Whites who reciprocate.

NC is 70% White, so to call it a black state, is incorrect, and probably an intentional lie.

A Change Has Come, Yes it did.

We may not be ready to see through skin color, but we are getting there.

Any other developed "White" Nations have a Black Man successfully running for their top executive position?

America has a Terrible reputation around the world as racists, but this is because we have racism, and we deal with it, discuss it, try to move past it.

Other nations quietly ignore their own racism, but we are actually WAY beyond them in this respect. Even "Black" nations like Brazil have a small handful of darker skinned legislators, and always a white conservative leader.

I'm Proud of my country. Not perfect, but getting better all the time.

This would have been impossible even 20 years ago, but for every OJ story, every Rodney King story, every Jeremiah Wright story, there have been a thousand unknown stories of racial unity and harmony.

We are coming together. When we do, we will be able to confront the real enemies, both foreign and domestic. I remember when Blacks were the worst thing in the world ... Then came Sept. 11th. You knew the blacks weren't going to blow you up. You knew they were just as American as you were, saw them diving out of the top of the Trade Center.

We get emotional politically, but Obama, win or lose, is merely a reflection of ourselves.

I for one, am surprised he's done (we've done) this well. Not to say we have to vote for him to prove anything, but it still does.

I mean, 9% of the blacks in NC voted for Hillary. That's pretty hard to understand, too.

Father Feely that meeting must be in BARRY FARMS on summner ave

Good Post!!!!!!!!!!!

If this site is a good sample of America's social profile and feelings, Obama has failed as a unifier!
What wonder cookies is he going to sell us now?

This election, if put Obama is put in the white house, is a perfect example of one minority work together to divide and conquer the majority.

True patriots like Sam Nunn have endorsed Obama. Think about it. We are going to send the neocons packing!!!!!!!!

Nadeem - I didn't know pathogens were able to type. How did you escape the CDC's labs?

I hope the media will one day pay heavily for their unprofessional and lopsided coverage of this year's democratic party primaries. The payment, of course, will be in terms of losing a large chunk of their readers who will be so disgusted as never to want to hear anything about Washington Post, New York Times, PBS, Fox News etc anymore in their lives.

They have failed in their principal responsibility of informing the people about the candidates programmes and how they plan to tackle the hydra-headed issues facing the US and the world. Instead they have relished in feeding us trash like "Obama's pastor makes him guilty by association", "White will not vote for Obama", "Hillary Clinton is favoured by the white-collared voters" "Chelsea and Bill are campaigning for Hillary" etc. In the end I say: And so what?

Up to now, no one has had the opportunity of taking up issues with the candidates over their programmes, if they have any. In the past, we have the opportunity of experts university professors commenting on the programmes of presidential candidates and picking holes in them. But now we are reduced to hearing a candidate say: "I will take up OPEC " just because people are groaning about gasoline prices. This, to me, sounds dubious to say the least as the problem of gas supply is a more complex and lingering one. For anyone to pretend that OPEC is, somehow, to blame on the day when primaries are taking place in Indiana and NC is cheap talk if not dishonest. Oil prices have been rising steeply since 2004 and all this time the candidate that wants to become our president did not know or did not hear about it. How about that for populism?

Does anyone in his right mind think that George Bush has any leverage over OPEC and neglect to use it thus preferring instead to see Americans suffer? The answer is a capital NO. Whereas it is possible to reach some 'understanding' with OPEC to increase output so as to leverage supply vis-s-vis demand. It is absolutely impossible for anyone to browbeat or blackmail OPEC into supplying oil below the 'market price'. For those who do not know, the price of commodities are determined by 'market forces' or the theory of demand and supply. When demand outstrips supply, then price rises. The reverse is the case when supply is higher than demand.

To come back to my point, due to the bad influence of the media in the current primaries coverage, Americans have lost the opportunity to really assess the candidates on their programmes and question the validity of their arguments. In the end, we may well end up with a mediocre candidate who has no credible program to revamp the economy and address other problems in the country.

I am concluding by appealing to the media to let us hear the candidates speak about their programmes for America. Enough of the noxious and indecent press that will lead the nation no where in the midst pf pressing problems.

I'm white and I "luvs me some watermelon", too

although, I do spit out the seeds.
I even secretly enjoy fried chicken every now and again, though always in a secluded area.
sometimes, I admire a womans pronounced rear end.
I don't like grape drink, but I find a 40 oz bottle of malt-based beer to be rather refreshing, especially on a hot afternoon.

I'm a little worried I may have some black blood in me.

I even voted for Obama. I don't even know why. I couldn't help it. Maybe its genetic.

this is a test

Obama is nothing more than a fraud.His proposed healthcare plan is much weaker than Hillary's.Paul krugman of the New York times said it best when he stated Obama's healt program is a hsam compared to Hillary's.

Dude, you are cracking me up. I swear, you stole that move from me didn't you?

You plagiarized it. did you see what I did to Umbria?

It's 8:38 pm EDT and Ankleless Annie is still ahead of BO in Indiana by 8 points (only CBS has called it for her) whereas BO has trashed her and the husband in North Carolina by 28 points (last I heard), this victory having been called at once by all the media.

One savors tonight the smirks on the faces of the male mainstream media anchors and the babbling hysteria of their distaff colleagues; gee, wonder who's for whom?

Betty Bigbutt must be fit to be tied, still waiting to be called the victrix (?) in Indiana ... and maybe she's right, the hostility of the male media mutts (and the very hard left) toward her & the husband having been obvious from the very beginning. If only in the 90's he'd not been, er, otherwise engaged when they came hat-in-hand; if only she hadn't hollered at them all the time to go through the likes of Carville, Begala, McAuliffe and the fugitive Mr. Hsu; if only she & Mr. Smug had bathed once in a while so as not to stink up the press room.

Remember how we were told tiresomely how popular the Lord of the Stain was? It seems he swallowed his own propaganda hook, line and sinker. One hopes they'll have a wonderful, long retirement together.

POTUS.
Clinton NO.
Obama Yes.

McCain if Clinton get nomination.

Those two are closer than the two democrat candidates.

Actually, it is a good election to lose. You think the next four years are going to get better? I believe the USA needs "four more years" just to clear things up about the modern Republicans!

Hillary will squeak through in Indiana, I expect. But she's gonna be wetting her pantsuit till Gary reports.

yeah, and Hillary's gas holiday was plagiarized from McMansion and will amount to a pile of crap.

Hillary is a fraud and a sham and an alcoholic with a rapist husband.

The witch is dead. Like it or not, Hillary is finished. She needed a big win in IN, and needed a win in NC. She cannot win now...she is finished.

hilary clinton's recent effort to demonise the oil companies is yet another example of her propensity to say whatever is political expedient at the moment. i'm a naturalized citizen from china and will vote for the first time in my life in america, and for obama. but if clinton wins (which she won't) i'd vote for McCain, not out of spite, but because i seriously believe mccain has more integrity than clinton has. i believe i'm not in the monirity here in my belief. god bless america.

I often think you're right, Tony Grant. So do many Republicans ... there are plenty who secretly hope to lose so they can blame the consequences of Bush on a Democrat rather than face them themselves.

Having actually taken the time to read all of the comments that have been posted, particulary the ones' from Jake D and his virulent supporters, I have come to the following conclusions...ignorance is bliss...many of the comments expressed clearly reveal why this country has found itself searching for direction...Perhaps, if the hard working white men, and women, who decided not to pursue opportunities for higher education, had elected to do so, their views of the world, (and those of us, who dont look, act and/or think like them), would, perhaps, be a tad more enlightened. Good luck with the "dumb and dumber" crowd. Perhaps their vote for a candidate that thinks like them will emerge to sink this country further down the hole than it exists at present.

Restore Honor and Integrity to the White House and to the Democratic Party ... Barack Obama, '08!!!

ATTENTION OBAMANIACS, OBAMAPHILES, OBAMABINLADEN'S

KNEEL BEFORE THE POWER OF THE PINK POWER SUIT.

YOUR EFFORTS AT VOTING ARE USELESS AGAINST THE POWER OF MY SUPER-DELEGATE HOARDS.

CEASE ALL HOSTILE BLOGGING AND RETURN TO YOUR TELEVISIONS FOR MY VICTORY SPEECH.

THAT IS ALL, FOR NOW.

STAY TUNED.

My wife is a brain surgeon. According to the sad, twisted logic of Hillary and her uneducated "downscale" supporters, that makes me qualified to operate on you.

CNN comentators said that Educated white people vote for Obama and poor uneducated vote for Clinton. Yeah. Educated young white people that support Obama are resentful of our present administration and are trying to be political correct by supporting a Black canbdidate. It does not matter who the Black guy is thet are trying to pretend and force everyone not to use the word negro. What is wrong with that? Why do they get offended? They use it when they think it favors them. Why doesn't Obama called himself a white since his mother was 100% white? He called himself negro because it appeals to other blacks.

Chris,
Shame on you! Hillary won Indiana even if you won't accept it! Now we are waiting your spin on the margin! You are so predictable!

I guess that qualifies him to run for President!

ROSALYNNEUS, DID YOU NOT RECEIVE THE TRANSMISSION?

YOU ARE TO RETURN AT ONCE TO YOUR TELEVISION AND AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTION.

OUR LEADER WILL BE WEARING A PINK POWER SUIT WITH LARGE FLAG PIN ON LAPEL AND SMILING LIKE SHE IS TRIPPING ON LSD.

WAIT FOR INSPIRATIONAL WORDS FROM SAID LEADER, NOW.

CEASE ALL BLOGGING AND AWAIT WORD FROM QUEEN HILLARY OF PENNSYLVANIA, CONNECTICUT, NEW YORK, AND I FORGET THE OTHER HOME STATE.

GO NOW.

THAT IS ALL.

The typical threat: "Let us shout, push and mock all we want, but don't you dare give us our own medicine or we'll be angry." All right, I'll just say this.

Obama has more delegates
Obama has more votes. Michigan doesn't count because Hillary ran unopposed in violation of her signed pledge to take her name off the ballot.
Obama will be further ahead in votes and delegates after tonight.
Obama will be the nominee.
Obama will be the president.

See? No mocking. No name calling. Just facts. Make your threats to them and see if they care.

You all right? Need a hankie? (Okay, just a little mocking.)

If Obama gets into office and is seen as a failure, as lacking knowledge, indecisive or his rhetoric is easily debunked, the backlash against blacks in this country is going to be horrific.

If it's a history making candidacy you want to be associated with, get someone in there the first time you are SURE is a strong leader that is up to the job. Cause race alone isn't going to solve any of the problems this country is facing.

I am going to completely stop readership of Washingtonpost.com and Washington Post.

YOU CALLED THE WINNER OF NC WHEN ONLY 13% OF THE PRECINCTS WERE IN?

AND THE PHOTO ON THE FRONT PAGE OF A HILLARY SUPPORTER WITH A SAD LOOK ON HER FACE?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

BY THE WAY, IS THAT NAME GREEK?
